Loxwood Meadworks Festival, English Honey Wine, Sussex, England
£23.50 – £126.90
Founder, Danny Bacon, was selling mead for The Loxwood Joust (a medieval festival he runs). Seeing how much people loved it, he thought “Why does no one drink mead anymore? Surely we can bring it back, but in a modern way”… and therefore created Loxwood Meadworks. Each wine is made using 100% local honey in the ferment (the process that makes the alcohol). It’s fermented dry, and then back-sweetened with honey, to give the most natural flavour and a delicate sweetness. Festival is their flagship product, made in an off-dry style.
Tasting notes
